Question

2 - earths features
learning objective: determine the climate of an area based on physical features.
as a person climbs a mountain, __________.
a.) the temperature increases
b.) the temperature decreases
c.) the chances of precipitation increase
d.) the probability of rain decreases

Explanation:

As altitude increases during mountain - climbing, the air pressure decreases and the temperature drops. Precipitation patterns are more complex and not always straightforwardly increasing or decreasing just with climbing a mountain. But the temperature change with altitude is a well - known and consistent principle.

Answer:

b.) the temperature decreases
